GameStop is ushering in the annual Black Friday sale later this month with an unusual contest for its employees. The gaming retail giant is partnering with the leading video-sharing app TikTok for a dance challenge contest. There's a weird catch though, the winning employees will be rewarded with extra 10 hours of labor on Black Friday, arguably the most hectic time of the year for a lot of people besides the holiday season. Yeah, I know. I'm also scratching my head at the idea.

Well, as bizarre as that may sound, there's still an upside to the said contest as the winners will also be getting an Amazon Echo Show 8, an Echo Auto, and a VISA gift card worth $100, aside from the aforementioned 10 additional labor hours on the entire Black Friday week. Not bad, eh? Check out the actual dance challenge below:



I'm not quite sure if an extra 10 hours added to your workload sounds pleasing and enticing to any of you but I'm assuming it entitles the winning employees to some bonuses considering Thanksgiving is around the corner given how hectic Black Fridays can be. I mean, there should be an actual incentive right? Who would want to work extra without getting paid? I sure won't.

The annual Black Friday sale happens on November 27th.
